Decathlon:
Hardee, Pappas, Arnold, Pogorelov, Kasyanov, Sysoev, Behrenbruch, Wiberg, Kravchenko, Sebrle, Barras. That's 6 of the top 7 at Worlds (and 9 of the top 12), plus Pappas, who missed Berlin but has outscored everyone this year except Hardee and Suarez..
Heptathlon:
Dobrynska, Yosypenko, Melnychenko, Chernova, Day, Pickler, Djimou.
